Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This is a Phase 1/2a, nonrandomized, open-label, parallel assignment, single-dose, dose-escalation, and dose-expansion study to evaluate the safety and clinical activity of PBCAR269A, with or without nirogacestat, in adults with r/r MM. Study subjects in Cohort A will receive PBCAR269A and study subjects in Cohort B will receive PBCAR269A and nirogacestat. At each dose level, study subjects in Cohort A and Cohort B will receive the same dose of PBCAR269A. In Cohort B, all study subjects will follow the same dosing regimen of nirogacestat. This study was terminated prior to beginning of Phase II due to lack of sufficient therapeutic effect

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This is a multicenter, nonrandomized, open-label, parallel assignment, single-dose, dose-escalation, and dose-expansion study to evaluate the safety and clinical activity of PBCAR269A, with or without nirogacestat, in adults with r/r MM. Before initiating the study treatment PBCAR269A, all study participants will be administered lymphodepletion chemotherapy. The initial lymphodepletion chemotherapy regimen will be composed of fludarabine and cyclophosphamide during the Screening Period. Study subjects in Cohort B will also receive nirogacestat. On Day 0 of the Treatment Period, study participants will receive a single intravenous (IV) infusion of PBCAR269A. All subjects are monitored during the treatment period through Day 28. All subjects who receive a dose of PBCAR269A, with or without nirogacestat, will be followed in a separate long-term follow-up (LTFU) study for 15 years after exiting this study.

Study Design

Understand how the trial is structured, including allocation methods, masking strategies, primary purpose, and other design elements.

Allocation Method

NON_RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

SEQUENTIAL

In Phase I, 3 escalating dose groups will be enrolled and treated sequentially, with the possibility of a single de-escalation. Within each dose group, at least 3 and at most 6 study participants will be treated with a single dose of PBCAR269A using a standard 3 + 3 design. The starting dose of PBCAR269A will be 6 x 105 CAR T cells/kg body weight. Subsequent dose groups will be treated with escalating doses to a maximum dose of 6 x 106 CAR T cells/kg. In the absence of DLTs, the dose will be increased using a fixed-dose scheme.

Eligibility Criteria

Check the participation requirements, including inclusion and exclusion rules, age limits, and whether healthy volunteers are accepted.

Inclusion Criteria

1. Diagnosis of MM with relapsed and/or refractory disease according to the IMWG criteria.
2. Measurable disease at Screening including at least 1 of the criteria below. Note: Study participants with immunoglobulin (Ig) A myeloma in whom serum protein electrophoresis is deemed unreliable due to comigration of normal serum proteins with the paraprotein in the beta region may be considered eligible provided total serum IgA level is \>400 mg/dL.

1. Serum myeloma (M)-protein ≥0.5 g/dL or, urine M-protein \>200 mg/24 hour.
2. Serum free light chain \>10mg/dL with abnormal kappa:lambda ratio.
3. Imaging consistent plasmacytoma and the presence of any clonal plasma cells in peripheral blood or bone marrow.
3. Study participants must be refractory to 2 prior MM treatment regimens including an immunomodulatory imide drug and a protease inhibitor prior to entering the study. Study participants must have recovered or stabilized to Grade ≤2 from any AEs experienced during prior treatment with the exception of neuropathy. Prior therapy requirements are as follows:

1. Undergone ≥1 complete cycle of treatment for each regimen, unless progressive disease was the best response to the regimen.
2. Must have received an immunomodulatory agent, a proteasome inhibitor, and an anti- CD38 antibody.
3. Study participants who are not candidates for ≥1 of the above treatments may still be considered eligible.
4. Has an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) Performance Status score of 0 or 1.
5. Has adequate bone marrow, renal, hepatic, pulmonary, and cardiac function defined as:

1. Estimated glomerular filtration rate \>30 mL/min/1.73 m2. A 24-hour urine collection for creatinine clearance may be used at the investigator's discretion.
2. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels both

≤3 times of upper limit of normal, unless there is suspected disease in the liver, in which case, no limit is set provided serum bilirubin is within eligibility criterion.
3. Total bilirubin \<2.0 mg/dL, except in study participants with Gilbert's syndrome.
